Your welcome 70 Donohue 390. For clarification purposes, the drier that you're showing in your post doesn't look like the one from a 70 Javelin. The one that came with the 70 Javelin I got all the parts from doesn't have the brass nipple thing to begin with. I'm not sure what the brass nipple does either, maybe you can elaborate on that for us 70 Donohue 390. |

Not seeing the brass nipple, is it the pressure cutoff valve for service? Many just remove the internals as they corrode and limit pressure for newer R134 conversions.
I have mine somewhere... can post a picture, as it goes in line from the dryer to the hose to the bulk head. |

OK, that explains what that thing is that looks like a brass nipple, it's the service cut off valve. I'd have to dig out the drier from the 70 Javelin (that I didn't use) and compare, I can't remember it having a cut off valve on it.

Lemme dig out my dryer hose and brass connection... It was easier to remove the brass connection off of the dryer for me, so I would think someone may have serviced and done the same, so that is why you may not see it on the dryer you have. Just guessing. Will post a picture soon. |

Here is what it looks like connected as part of the line. Sorry I corrected the image, as installed it backwards on the line fitting. None the less the nipple should be facing the line connection when properly installed. Image is now correct.
Since the item can be disassembled, the nibble can be seen protruding from the body that fits on the line connection. So, one half may be on the line, and the other on the dryer. Or the whole unit can be left on either the line or dryer. Mine is just for looks and ease of stock connections. It's gutted and no longer functions as a valve.

OK, I remember that valve, it looks like a check valve when you look into one end of it, and that's what it is. The drier 70 Donohue 390 found just doesn't have the valve in line with the hose. Edited by White70JavelinSST - Jun/22/2018 at 11:28am |

To me the way everything is connected, you can say three connections. The nipple, the body, and the fitting. They all have some hex flange to them.
Haven't looked at the picture given, and may have to, but... 70 may have two varient connections. My 71 looks the same as my 73, but I never got as far as the valve assembly. From what i gather 69 has some variance so, it is possible early 70 is different? CORRECTION: Looked at the picture you stated from an earlier post. The three connections are different than what I know of. Possibly there is two varients. Edited by 304-dude - Jun/22/2018 at 11:35am |

Armand, where did you get the factory underhood mounted rubber a/c seal? Is that being reproduced now?

I reproduced the underhood seal for 68/70 AMX/Javelin, I am out of them right now and my rubber extruded can't find my die. He is looking, as soon as I have them back in stock, I put them int he For Sale Section. Thanks.
